Umayyad Dirham (Minted in Qumis, 92 AH) – Reign of al-Walid ibn Abd al-Malik
This dirham, struck in "Qumis" (south of the Caspian Sea), is distinguished by a unique minting die, making it a rare piece. Dating back to 92 AH, the year of the great conquests in Al-Andalus and Sindh, it bridges the East and the West.<div>The presence of an active mint in this remote mountainous region confirms the efficiency of the Umayyad administrative network, which connected the fringes of the sprawling empire to a single heart in the Levant.<!-- notionvc: 5a158f7f-c42f-4749-aa1d-4675072fde69 --></div>
